I was just sitting down to figure out how to write a device driver, and
when I loaded the usbmon module and fired up wireshark the keyboard
started behaving. The first few keys were captured with the "modified"
keycodes that the usbhid driver doesn't recognize properly, then it
seems to have switched into "normal" mode and behaved like a regular usb
keyboard. I tried it on two computers with the same result, i.e. sudo
modprobe usbmon, sudo wireshark "fixes" the problem for some strange
reason. Now if only I could figure out how to trigger the mode switch in
a less annoying way that would be great.

Title:
  USB Keyboard "Masione VMJ-02" ID 1c4f:0056 SiGma Micro: Ctrl / Super /
  Alt incorrectly recognized as L-Shift

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  It's a new keyboard and basically unusable due to the incorrect key
  recognition by usbhid module. I have scoured the net for similar
  problems, and found an identical sounding bug for an Azio keyboard. I
  tried that driver after modifying the source code to apply to
  1c4f:0056, but to no avail.
